Today’s gospel offers a vital word of warning, opportunity, and promise from Jesus, spoken from an apocalyptic perspective to unveil the true nature of our hearts and souls. Loss and change, like my own impending departure from St. Barnabas, inevitably face us and reveal what is true about ourselves. Rather than seeking outside protection or being led astray, Jesus calls us to put our trust in God’s providential hand, enduring trials to gain our souls.

As my time as priest-in-charge concludes, this Remembrance Sunday sermon reflects on the bittersweet experience of doing things for the last time and the spiritual depth found in remembering people who have died. Drawing on the faith of the saints and the promises in Scripture, I explore how the hope offered through Christ’s resurrection strengthens our faith and connects us with the faithful departed. My hope is that this remembrance will nurture us all in faith, hope, and love as we experience God’s presence daily, especially in the Eucharist.

This All Saints’ Sunday sermon reflects on saints, not so much as heroes, but as faithful yet flawed human beings who are transformed by God’s love. Saints are not isolated individuals operating out of their own strength, but instead are chosen as agents of divine power, and who find hope in Christ by following his pattern of sacrificial love, often counter to the world’s expectations. Ultimately, we are reminded that we are part of the glorious, hope-filled company of saints.
